Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton's comments about Russell Wilson sparked a heated response from the New York Giants quarterback, who called his former coach "classless."

Following the Denver Broncos' wild 33-32 comeback win over the New York Giants, head coach Sean Payton was riding high. Amidst his jubilant mood, he said something at the post-game podium about Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart that Russell Wilson took as an insult.

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton could be hearing from the NFL league office about a potential fine from Sunday's New York Giants game.

After the Denver Broncos defeated the New York Giants on Sunday, coach Sean Payton revealed that he had hoped New York would wait until after the game in Denver to switch to rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, implying that he wanted to play against Wilson this season. (The Giants benched Wilson in favor of Dart three games into the year.)

While Payton enjoyed a legendary partnership with Drew Brees during their years with the Saints, he and Wilson had one of the ugliest coach-quarterback relationships in NFL history. Even the feud between former Cowboys coach Barry Switzer and QB Troy Aikman looked tame by comparison.

Following Sunday’s close game, Payton told reporters that instead of his Broncos playing against the Giants’ new starting quarterback, rookie Jaxon Dart, he would have preferred to face Wilson, seemingly making a dig at his former player being overshadowed by a newcomer.

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton told reporters on Wednesday that his comments after his team's win over the New York Giants on Sunday were not directed at Russell Wilson.

The Denver Broncos pulled off one of the most improbable comebacks in the NFL this season with a miraculous fourth-quarter performance by quarterback Bo Nix and the offense.

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said that he believes the NFL will vote again on the Eagles' tush push play this offseason.
